My sales have flatlined, what's going on with the site!

I went from $100 a day to literally zero for the last week. It seems to me when ebay changed the international shipping policy everything went dark. I promote, sell similar, send offers and nothing. I've seen videos where people have talked to a US ebay staffer and magically their stores get fixed. Any suggestions?

I just checked your sold items.  I'm not buying this "$100 a day" thing.


Oh... Yes.
Don't allow poverty to constrain our imagination.
There are rich people out there, and I envy them.
I have items on eBay listed for $9 but people are willing to pay $70 to get them from my other venues.
And these items are not just sold once; they continue to sell.

 

Marketing is not just price war, price war is a dead end.
Moreover, I don't believe any platform would be willing to position itself as a low-end, low-priced sales platform.
eBay might have tried to shake off this image already.

So Ebay will allow you to assign the same tracking number ? Thanks for the heads up

To more than one order? Yes, you just need to go in and paste it in manually. I do that all the time when I combine shipping on things.

I have not sold a single item for now over three weeks. I continue to add but I'm growing quite hopeless.

These are the results of all the well thought out changes ebay has made. Your items are probably suppressed to make room for promoted items.

Our sales were 100% consistent and that immediately stopped after ebays big regrouping of categories back in 2021 and they have only gone down since.

I've been posting recently about all the things I was doing to get sales up.  They were successful, but I always included the caveat that what works today could stop working tomorrow.  I'm always waiting for the knife in the back.  It came late last week.  Sales down 50% from the previous week and still dropping.  Usually what I do at this point is to go through and pare down all the listings that have no views in the last 30 days and start adding them slowly back in using sell similar.  Whether its that or something else that does it, who knows.

eBay is doing ZERO advertising.
